Will there be a public build 4.2. And when thank you
Usually about 2 weeks…So I will said, around the first half of january…
On other matter, will it be, at some point, any indication of the route we initiate with serum ? I remember earlier version were more “clear” on this point…
Even an update of the wiki to map some of the newer content out would be helpful. It’s been a long time.
Heya! The wiki is actually managed by the community, I have no hand in it, so if you’re looking for an update there I’d recommend the discord 🙂
So no bringing Sophie to dinner if she’s a dom? or did I do something wrong somewhere…
Damn, has the game finally been hit by the Patreon hammer and had to convert to stepfamily??
Uh, as long as I have been playing Ava and Dakota have always been stepmother and stepsister respectively, with an option to make them your real mother and sister. And as far as I can see, that option remains since I have played 4.2 and the drop-down box for stepmother/mother and stepsister/sister is still there and I have played a number of times, with several variations of relationship.
It’s been that way for a while as a preemptive measure, as has the option to change it back 😀
